I'm super enjoying this book. This is my second go at reading it, and for the life of me, I can't remember why I wasn't more drawn in to it initially. I'm finding the dialog fast and at times darkly witty.

I think this has been a really nice step back into reading fantasy for me.

Very strong issue so far!

I am thoroughly enjoying this story! ... "An alien invasion disguised as the rapture" is what I've been describing _All the Fiends of Hell_ to my friends.

While checking out other readers' reviews of this book, I noticed that someone had mentioned that the characters from the movie Aliens had their names changed from Knewt to Billie and Hicks to Wilks. This bothered me initially because of the similarities.

I've been enjoying this. Looking forward to commenting on the book when I finish.

I'm really enjoying this book so far. Having watched the Netflix adaptation of 'The Ritual' I was excited to jump into this story.

The horrific conspiracy had kept me engaged and has actually given me a nightmare or two.

Looking forward to finishing!

The story has bridged several genres so far... I feel like I'm reading a horror story as well as a spy thriller. Picture Stephen King, meets Robert Ludlum. Which, unfortunately is completely unfair to Mr. Lumley, who has managed to mix the two genres seamlessly. I think this may be my third read-through and I still find things that captivate me and keep me thinking. A totally enjoyable experience.

Still enjoying the story. You know, it's too bad that there are not more novels that are able to cross genres as well as this book. It's horror, it's a thriller, and it's a spy story all in one. The tale is told masterfully and keeps the reader turning the pages to find out what happens next. Better yet, I'm finding I'm enjoying the character of Harry Keogh.

Just got into Chapter 2. My older self is not disappoint in what my younger self though was good. Here we have ESPionage - Cold-War Style. Dragosani, our Russian Necromancer doesn't disappoint and his handler Borowitz is as I remember him. Really enjoying the re-read.

A little slow going, but I'm plowing on.

I'm enjoying the story and looking forward to more. For some reason I feel this resonates with Heinlien's _Starship Troopers_. Certainly not the same story but it certainly has the feel of it. P.S. I loved _Starship Troopers_.

The very enjoyable read. I wish there was more action with Mitch Rapp though.

Good book so far. I'm enjoying how the author is constructing the Zombie Apocalypse.

I'm luke warm with this book. It's taking me forever to read and has had me on the cusp of abandoning it.

Really good story... This is story telling at its best!

What can I say... This is slow going, but intriguing. I'm enjoying it, but I'm finding it a bit dense and plodding.
